Chemical Structure

BB-Carotane CAS 17161-33-0 chemical structure

Description

Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 559.05 g/mol gives BB-Carotane distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.

CATO supplies BB-Carotane (CAS 17161-33-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C40H78, MW 559.05 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Owing to an organic framework, BB-Carotane is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 559.05 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.

Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.

As a certified reference material (CRM), BB-Carotane meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
